    That tracks. Heinz ketchup on it’s own has a lot of sugar in it already.

    I would say “Britain No” but Heinz is an American company.

      And apparently they are also selling it here, at Smoothie Kings in Atlanta, Chicago, and New York.

      I’m kinda glad it’s not where I live, because it’s exactly the kind of trainwreck I would want to try against my better judgment.

    how did they beat v8 or snapple to this idea? I thought they were making drinkable vegetable sludge a long time ago

      v8 had v8 Splash and v8 Fusion since at least the late 90s, though I think they might be discontinued now? But it was tomato/carrot juice with berries and fruits mixed in.

          You know you could have went and fact checked it yourself and then hey, you know a cool new fact yourself and you could even post a comment here corroborating him or correcting him if he is wrong. Instead you decided to be a dick though. Oh, that’s literally your name…

    I’ve made plenty of smoothies with v8 as a base, and it’s really not that bad if you do it right.

      V8 doesn’t have nearly as much sugar as ketchup does.

      To be exact, V8 has 1g/oz. Ketchup has 8g/oz.

      It’s not the tomato flavour I’m worried about with this smoothie.

          I can’t do the low sodium. I love V8 and have for years. Love adding hot sauces and it even passes for a low effort bloody Mary but taking the salt out of it is a deal breaker.

      Asia’s been doing ketchup flavored sweets for a while, it might surprise you. It’s literally a sugary tomato vinegar paste as is, you realize.
